Thank You for this, never thought of just cutting blocks out of these sets. I made foundation quilt blocks from left over strips and took all my extra blocks and made granddaugters quilts. Here's one!

One of my favorite resources is to sew strips into sets that would make good borders or other uses. These strip sets are very versatile and are good to have on hand to pull out and use whenever needed.

Here I am going to show you how I use strips.

Now you may see stuff you already know how to do but I hope I can inspire someone to try my easy way to use strips.

When I did it I wasn't sure if I liked it or not. But it sold so I guess someone liked it. I'm still not sure. It def is not my favorite. but it offers a variety of design.
